Throughout the festive season, The Jockey Club hosts a series of top-class Grade 1 racing fixtures — the perfect way to celebrate in style and blow away the cobwebs as the New Year approaches.

Beyond the thrilling action on the track, racegoers can enjoy a wealth of seasonal entertainment, as well as delicious festive food and drink to complete the experience.

There’s no better way to get into the festive spirit than with a visit to one of The Jockey Club’s iconic Christmas racedays. From the exhilarating Betfair Tingle Creek Festival at Sandown Park to the unforgettable Christmas Meeting at Cheltenham, December is packed with world-class racing – all before the Christmas holidays have even begun.

Iconic Boxing Day Fixtures

Boxing Day is a highlight of the racing calendar, offering the chance to witness some of the sport’s most prestigious events. Headlining the day is the historic King George VI Chase at Kempton Park’s Ladbrokes Christmas Festival. Elsewhere, enjoy fantastic Boxing Day racing at Aintree, Market Rasen, and Wincanton – a great way to continue the celebrations.
